This study score follows our very successful publications of the Urtext full score and performance material (BA 6994) and the piano reduction of all four concertos (BA 6994a).
This critical edition of Vivaldi’s masterpiece is based on the Manchester manuscript source, which originates from Vivaldi’s circle, and represents an alternative (in many cases, more explicit) version of these famous concertos. The Manchester source has until now not been used as the primary source for a modern edition.
- First study score to be based on the Manchester source
- Critical scholarly edition
- Details regarding the work's source history as well as comments on performance practice
“In short, this critical edition is indispensable for those with an interest in this area and provides the means to a wonderful rediscovery of works which we all thought we knew so well.”
(Ensemble 1/2005)
“...admirable in its clarity and usefulness.”
